Introduction
For
the
student
Just
Listening
and
Speaking
(Upper
Intermediate)
is
one
of
two
skills
books
designed
for
you
to
study
on
your
own,
or
together with other students
and
a
teacher.
It will

help
you
improve
your
understanding
of
spoken
English,
and
you
will
improve
your
speaking
too.
We
have
chosen
the
listening
extracts
and
speaking
tasks
carefully
to
offer
an
interesting
and

challenging
mix
of
topics
and
activities.
With
the
listening
extracts
there
are
exercises
to
help
you
understand
them
and
learn
new
language
from
them.
In
the
speaking
activities
we
help

you
do
the
tasks
successfully,
and
there
are
exercises
looking
at
the
difference
between
speaking
and
writing.
There
is
an
accompanying
CD
with
all
the
listening
extracts
and
speaking
examples.

When
you
see
this
symbol
("I,?)
it
means
that
you
can
listen
to
the
CD.
Vou
will
also
find
an
audioscript
near
the
back
of
the
book.
When
you
see

this
symbol
( )
it
means
that
the
answers
to
the
exercises
are
in
the
answer
key
at
the
back
of
the
book.
Vou
can
check
your
answers
there.
We
are

confident that this
book
will
help
you
become
a
better
listener
and
speaker
of
English.
Enjoy
using
it
'
••
For
the
teacher
The
Justskills
books
at
the
Upper
Intermediate
level
can

be
used
on
their
own
or
in
combination,
or
as
supplementary
material
to
support other
materials.
They
have
been
written
and
designed
using
a consistent
methodological
approach
that
allows
them
to
be

used
easily
together.
They
are
designed
in
such
a
way
that
they
can
either
be
used
in
class
or
by
the
students
working
on
their
own.
Just
Listening
and
Speaking

consists
of
18
listening
units
in
Part
A
and
four
speaking
sections
in
Part
B.
The
listening
extracts
include
news
broadcasts,
stories,
dramas,
comedy,
authentic
interviews,
audiobook
extracts
and
a beautiful

song.
There
are
comprehension
and
language
extension
exercises
to
accompany
each
listening
extract.
In
Part
B
students
get
practice
in
reading
aloud
and
interacting with
speakers
on
the
audio
tracks
(for

interviews,
dialogues,
etc).
Section
4
makes
them
aware
of
some
of
the
most
obvious
differences
between
spoken
and
written
English.
All
the
listening
extracts
and
interactive
spoken
material
for
Part

B
are
on
the
accompanying
CD.
There
is
an
audioscript
at
the
back
of
the
book,
together with a
comprehensive
answer
key
where
students
can
check
their
work.
Our
aim
has
been

to
provide
texts
and
tasks
that
are
themselves
stimulating
and
that
could
lead
to
any
number
of student activities
once
the
exercises
in
this
book
have
been
completed.
We
are
confident that
you

will
find
this
book
a
real
asset
and
that
you
will
also
want
to
try
the
other title at
the
Upper
Intermediate
level,
Just
Reading
and
Writing.
